From deployable composite booms in space to lightweight antenna mast structures on the ground, its unique technology has attracted attention from engineers and product designers worldwide. Based on expertise in reducing weight and improving portability of mast structures and antennas for the military, Rolatube engineers realized the legs of the tripod could be designed to roll into a compact and portable coil, eliminating the complexity and added weight of telescopic hardware. With a rolled storage size of just 7" x 6" (18 x 15 cm), the Revolve packs up at one-third of the size of traditional tripod designs.
